Bayern head for Qatar with 10-point Bundesliga lead after Hertha win

Bayern head for Qatar with 10-point Bundesliga lead after Hertha win (photo: youtube/Bundesliga) The win leaves Bayern 10 points clear of second-placed RB Leipzig, who have a game in hand away to crisis-hit Schalke on Saturday. "We could have scored a few more goals today," Bayern striker Thomas Mueller told broadcaster DAZN. "We have a few wins in a row now and we are looking forward to the Club World Cup." Coman found the net with a deflected shot on 21 minutes to give Bayern all three points in snowy Berlin, just hours before they left for next week's tournament in Qatar. Bayern face African Champions League winners Al-Ahly in Monday's semi-final in Doha. Yet they first had to get past a Hertha side buoyed by the return of former coach Pal Dardai last month and the arrival of former Germany midfielder Sami Khedira on a free transfer from Juventus. Khedira, though, played only 10 minutes as a substitute as Bayern battled to a narrow win. "I didn't expect to be playing 90 minutes straight away. I know I need time on the pitch and in training," said Khedira, who made just one appearance for Juventus in the last 12 months. A bright start from the home side was snuffed out when goalkeeper Rune Jarstein brought down Leroy Sane in the box on 11 minutes. Yet the Hertha stopper redeemed himself immediately, diving to his right to save Robert Lewandowski's penalty. Ten minutes later, Jarstein was left flapping at the ball as Coman's shot deflected off Niklas Stark and looped into the net. Both Jarstein and his opposite number Manuel Neuer made several saves before half-time, as an entertaining game swung from end to end. Hertha had a brilliant chance to equalise two minutes from time, as Matheus Cunha beat the offside trap and found himself one-on-one with Neuer. Yet the Brazilian's chip over the Bayern keeper trickled wide of the post, prompting howls of anguish from the Berlin bench. AFP …

US envoy on Afghan peace process to visit Afghanistan, Qatar for talks

Khalilzad and his team will also visit other regional capitals as part of a mission aimed at working toward "a just and durable political settlement and permanent and comprehensive ceasefire" in the Afghan conflict, the State Department said in a statement. It did not provide dates or other details. US-brokered peace talks began in September but progress has since slowed and violence has risen with uncertainty over whether international forces will pull out troops by May as originally planned. President Joe Biden's administration is conducting a review of a February 2020 deal with the Taliban that is expected to determine whether it will meet the deadline to withdraw the remaining 2,500 US troops from America's longest war. US and European officials have said the Taliban has not fulfilled commitments it made in the accord amid a surge of violence blamed on the insurgents. The Taliban, seeking to reimpose Islamist rule in Afghanistan after its 2001 ouster at the hands of US-led troops, denies the charges. …

Bayern Munich eye historic joy of six in Club World Cup final

Bayern Munich's Polish forward Robert Lewandowski celebrates his second goal during the FIFA Club World Cup semi-final football match between Egypt's Al-Ahly and Germany's Bayern Munich at the Ahmed bin Ali Stadium in the Qatari city of Ar-Rayyan on February 8, 2021.(Karim JAAFAR / AFP) The German giants are bidding to become only the second club after Barcelona, who managed it in 2009, to win all six domestic and international titles available in a single season. Having already claimed the Champions League, UEFA Super Cup, German Super Cup, Bundesliga and German Cup titles in 2020, Bayern want to complete the set. Bayern captain Manuel Neuer has made it clear the German giants are "up for it, we can make history," sentiments echoed by head coach Hansi Flick. "We came here to win the title. That would be the icing on the cake and also a special success in Bayern Munich's successful club history," said Flick ahead of the final in Al Rayyan, on the outskirts of Doha. After brushing past African champions Al Ahly of Egypt with a 2-0 win in Monday's semi-final, thanks to two Robert Lewandowski goals, only Tigres now block Bayern's path. The CONCACAF champions beat Brazilian giants Palmeiras 1-0 in Sunday's other semi-final and are also hoping to make history of their own. "No other Mexican team have gone this far, but now we want more," said Tigres forward Carlos Gonzalez after veteran French striker Andre-Pierre Gignac, 35, scored the winning goal against Palmeiras. "We came here hoping to lift the trophy and now that we're close, we're encouraged and motivated that we can achieve our goal." Flick gave his Bayern stars Tuesday off to prepare for the final in which he expects a much tougher test against Tigres. "They are a very dynamic team, very athletic with a lot of power. We have to counter that well," he warned. Bayern's top scorer Lewandowski continues to send goal records tumbling having netted 29 times in 27 Bayern games this season, but …
